EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- Now that matters about the library are under discussion, there is one thing, the blame of which cannot be laid to the "obstinacy" of the corporation was to anybody besides the men themselves. A number of books, few enough at best, are reserved for outside reading in each course. These books are arranged each morning on the shelves of the library in a systematic way so that a man has no difficulty whatever in finding any book he wants. But before an hour has passed whoever wants a book must search every shelf, table and corner of the reading-room before he can be sure that the book he wants is not in use. If each man should take the very slight trouble necessary, and replace the book in its proper place after using, he would save an infinite amount of annoyance and trouble to other men and would benefit himself as well. For if the idea once gets footway that every man is expected to replace books when he is through to replace books when he is through reading them, men would feel the necessity of doing it, and all would be mutually benefited.
This matter has been a subject of complaint-every year since I have been in college, and it does seem to me that in a matter so trifling, men might exercise a little care and make all the relations in the reading-room more agreeable than they are.
